It’s gonna happen unless those programs catch up. Northwestern is building a new state of the art stadium because they’re aware of the heightened expectations placed on them. Indiana is investing more into football as well. Their actions indicate that this isn’t mere conjecture, it’s shape up or ship out eventually.
Regardless of the author, it's an outcome that must be contended with eventually.
The networks simply aren't going to give the current state of Northwestern, Minnesota, Mich St, Iowa, Illinois, Rutgers, Maryland, Kentucky, et al $70MM/yr into perpetuity.
I hear you friend, but their contributions aren't worth $70MM/yr.Mich st and Iowa have huge fanbases. They’re not national draws but they are likely pullling their weight. Same with Kentucky
Maryland, Rutgers and northwestern are just permanent homecoming opponents and doormats
Honestly, this is kind of a circular argument. Play it out and you kick out schools like that. A few years ago by meteorites in theory keep going up even though it’s just the cost of inflation and then new schools are now at the bottom. I don’t hat deserve the same valuation as Ohio State or Michigan which will always almost certainly be the case. So now you kick them out. Eventually, you’re the pac 2 in a different form.I hear you friend, but their contributions aren't worth $70MM/yr.

Think about major-league baseball there are the Yankees and the Dodgers and then there’s a massive gap to the next team alone let alone all the way down to the Oakland A’s.
I’m not saying that there isn’t a reasonable argument on the Northwestern and Vanderbilt but not every school can only be valued on the peak valuation for meteorites when you’re trying to form a league by definition not 10 teams are going to be equal
jailbreak time may may may also come right after the NCAA settlement this week... all **** could break loose in general next week, but that also includes fall out for G5 and other D2 and basketball only types and their athletic departmentsAlmost jailbreak time...
This is right. That settlement is going to be a game changer.jailbreak time may may may also come right after the NCAA settlement this week... all **** could break loose in general next week, but that also includes fall out for G5 and other D2 and basketball only types and their athletic departments
FSU, in their amended complaint, specifically asked the judge to rule on precisely WHAT does the GOR mean, according to the STATEMENT IN THE ESPN MEDIA AGREEMENT. That is also where Clemson's law suit if focused as they have read the ESPN agreement and an early comment was that it specifically stated 'the GOR is in effect while the member institution remains a member of the conference" or words to that effect.this is good news, it basically means that the GOR means squat if you leave the conference

if we don't win this year then record wise, we look to be no more valuable than those teams that are left out because We've sucked for 2 decades.I see six good Big 12 teams there....

To me this is why winning and getting to the playoff THIS year is so important because it shows Miami is on the way back up again and they are investing in the program to do so.
Even though our brand is recognizable nationwide they aren't going to get rid of a bunch of bad teams only to add another one who hasn't been relevant for 2 decades.
We NEED TO WIN and win big to show that we are on the way back to being an upper echelon team as we were before.
Man, conference **** aside, I agree with you anyway. NEED TO WINif we don't win this year then record wise, we look to be no more valuable than those teams that are left out because We've sucked for 2 decades.
